Search with TMDB/IMDB/TVDB id

1 minute read

Starting with tinyMediaManager v4.1.4 it is now possible to do a movie/TV show search using the TMDB/IMDB/TVDB id directly in the search window. To make this work, you have to prefix the id with the name of the metadata provider:

  • TMDB -> TMDB:xxxxxx
  • IMDB -> IMDB:ttxxxxxx (or ttxxxxxx) directly
  • TVDB -> TVDB:xxxxxx (TV shows only)

Searching with TMDB id

At the moment only a subset of scrapers are able to search with those ids:

  • TMDB -> themoviedb.org
  • IMDB -> imdb.com, themoviedb.org, omdbapi.com, moviemeter.nl, ofdb.de
  • TVDB -> thetvdb.com, themoviedb.org
